Hi, I am 27 years old and have put off my schooling and career to start a family (at 22) and whatever else life has thrown at me. I have never been to college and really cannot afford much at all. I really would like to become a nurse who works in a hospital. I don't even know what kind of nurse that would be called. I don't know anything about college, what degrees I will need, what courses I need to take at all. Can you guys PLEASE help me. I feel so confused and lost, but I feel that if I don't make a move now...I never will. Also, can I do anything for college work online...I know you can, but I mean for beginning courses.
